Answer:
y-11
Step-by-step explanation:
First you divide 3 by 3 to get one. Then you add 12 to -1 to get 11. Then you will have y-11. PEMDAS saves lives.
well, we know it's a rectangle, so that means the sides JK = IL and JI = KL, so
![\stackrel{JK}{3x+21}~~ = ~~\stackrel{IL}{6y}\implies 3(x+7)=6y\implies x+7=\cfrac{6y}{3} \\\\\\ x+7=2y\implies \boxed{x=2y-7} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{JI}{6y-6}~~ = ~~\stackrel{KL}{2x+20}\implies 6(y-1)=2(x+10)\implies \cfrac{6(y-1)}{2}=x+10 \\\\\\ 3(y-1)=x+10\implies 3y-3=x+10\implies \stackrel{\textit{substituting from the 1st equation}}{3y-3=(2y-7)+10} \\\\\\ 3y-3=2y+3\implies y-3=3\implies \blacksquare~~ y=6 ~~\blacksquare ~\hfill \blacksquare~~ \stackrel{2(6)~~ - ~~7}{x=5} ~~\blacksquare](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cstackrel%7BJK%7D%7B3x%2B21%7D~~%20%3D%20~~%5Cstackrel%7BIL%7D%7B6y%7D%5Cimplies%203%28x%2B7%29%3D6y%5Cimplies%20x%2B7%3D%5Ccfrac%7B6y%7D%7B3%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20x%2B7%3D2y%5Cimplies%20%5Cboxed%7Bx%3D2y-7%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cstackrel%7BJI%7D%7B6y-6%7D~~%20%3D%20~~%5Cstackrel%7BKL%7D%7B2x%2B20%7D%5Cimplies%206%28y-1%29%3D2%28x%2B10%29%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B6%28y-1%29%7D%7B2%7D%3Dx%2B10%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%203%28y-1%29%3Dx%2B10%5Cimplies%203y-3%3Dx%2B10%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bsubstituting%20from%20the%201st%20equation%7D%7D%7B3y-3%3D%282y-7%29%2B10%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%203y-3%3D2y%2B3%5Cimplies%20y-3%3D3%5Cimplies%20%5Cblacksquare~~%20y%3D6%20~~%5Cblacksquare%20~%5Chfill%20%5Cblacksquare~~%20%5Cstackrel%7B2%286%29~~%20-%20~~7%7D%7Bx%3D5%7D%20~~%5Cblacksquare)
Answer:
70% of the people at the fair are students
165 people are on the ride
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find a percentage, take the fraction given, 385/550, and divide the numerator, 385, and divide it by the denominator, 550. Once completing this, we get 0.7
Next, we multiply the result by 100, and get 70, thus, 385 is 70% of 550.
To find how many people 30% of 550 is, we take the percentage and put it in a fraction with the denominator being 100(changes with size of fraction like a decimal, 300 would be over a denominator of 1000)
With 30/100, we then multiply by 550 with the equation looking like this:
30/100*550/1
Once we finish multiplying(typically using a calculator, although you can do it manually) we get 165, the value of how many people are on rides out of the total 550.
